Résumé

Grothendieck's theory of schemes permeates modern algebraic geometry and underlies its applications to number theory, physics, and applied mathematics. In the book, concepts are illustrated with fundamental examples, and explicit calculations show how the constructions of scheme theory are carried out in practice.

The Geometry of Schemes by David Eisenbud

This text is intended to fill the gap between texts on classical algebraic geometry and the full-blown accounts of the theory of schemes. The text focuses on interesting examples, with a minimum of machinery, to show what is happening in the field. Included is a large number of exercises, spread throughout the text. The prerequisites for reading this book are modest: a little commutative algebra and an acquaintance with algebraic varieties.
"A great subject and expert authors!"
Nieuw Archief voor Wiskunde,June 2001

"Both Eisenbud and Harris are experienced and compelling educators of modern mathematicsThis book is strongly recommended to anyone who would like to know what schemes are all about."
Newsletter of the New Zealand Mathematical Society, No. 82, August 2001

Joe Harris is a well-known cartoonist and the originator of the Underdog character. He currently resides in New York City. This is an excerpt from the Hardcover edition.
